*Poppy’s Girl* She’s a princess in pink lifting arms up to me She takes my love and loves me back so unselfishly She trusts me and knows that I’m a real soft touch She’s just poppy’s little girl and I love her so much She’s giggles and gurgles and scrunches her nose She’s got wobbly legs and sucks on her toes She got big bright blue eyes that take control of me She makes funny noises and entertains me for free She’s got bumps and bruises she knows Poppy can cure She thinks my kiss and my hugs are a fix all for sure She’s got the halo of an angel’s when she’s fast asleep Sometimes such perfect beauty makes this grown man weep She knows when you take off her diaper to pee like the rain Then she’ll spit up her milk just when you change her again She falls asleep with her head laid down on my lap What better place then poppy’s when it’s time for a nap

Much love and respect,
CJ
